thanks thats a big help. does anyone know if crushed garlic helps? i saw it on a website and wondered if anyone had tried it? that or honey in the dogs water?

It could be worms because of the mucus in the poo , or have you changed what she is being fed from what the breeder had her on . If she is 7 weeks now how old was she when you got her most pups do best to stay with mom till at least 8 weeks , your best thing at the moment is to take her to the vet so that they can give her the once over and maybe give you a good wormer ours are on stronghold , they have to be weighed for it so they get the right dose , so you will take her to the vets for the first 6 month each month for her worming unless they will sell it to you to give it at home . Try not to give her too many different things to settle her tummy we made that mistake when we got Daisy to some degree i think it only made things worse as it ended up being a food allergy keep us posted

i got her on friday, thats when she was 7 weeks old. she was being fed on pedigree tinned 4 times a day. when we got her home she had the diarrhoea and it wasnt very plesant and it still isnt. we decided to change her diet straight away to denes. i know that you should change the diet over a 10 day period, but the pedigree was just going through her. her faeces were a little better after being fed the denes, but then she got the diarrhoea again, so i wormed her this morning. she is still bright as a button and is playing at the moment.

i have also noticed that she is sometimes wetting herself on my bed, not a good thing at all. does anyone know why she would do this? do you think it could be because shes a bit under the weather?

You have done exactly what we did and changed her food straight away as the breeder we got Daisy from was giving them bakers (wash my mouth out yuk ) mixed with cat food . We put her onto eukanuba then a few weeks later cos we heard it was a good food we put het onto james welbeloved we visited the vets on a number of occasions and to cut a long story short after tests ect we had to put her on to a hypoallergenic food from the vets that did the trick eventually ,this went on for about 12 weeks all in all
and in hind sight i wish although it was a crap way of feeding we had kept up what the breeder was giving and made the swap more gradual i,l never know if that would have stoped the runs or not but safe to say she is ok now lol and eating everything we give her with no trouble, The fact she had the runs already could have been the food she was on or nerves coming into a new home and then you changing her food made it worse, you will never know same as us just make changes slowly even if it means giving them something your not happy with for the sake of a week its worth not having the runs .

i think your right, the wetting on the bed could be excitement. she is a very loving and confident rotty pup. she only wets on the bed when my partner comes into the room. she loves him to death already. im feeding her on chicken and rice at the moment but i will definatedly try the scrambled egg tonight. she seems alot perkier this afternoon and has not made a mess for a few hours. shes on a 12 hour fast at the moment.

when we got buster he was about 7 weeks old just over. he has terrable runs with blood in and mucus so we took him to the vets straight away as i was worried about parvo and stuff(because of the blood). they gave us some probiotics ....protexin. and some kaogel also they put him on hills i/d for a couple of weeks but it soon cleared him up

i was a bit worried earlier about parvovirus because i know what damage it can do (death) i have been looking on the internet all day, trying to find out what it could be, ive looked at the 5 major canine diseases and also looked at worms. i will be ringing the vets in the morning if she is no better. i am going to try the scrambled egg first and see how she gets on with that! she is only young and it is very worrying because i dont want anything to happen to her!

i will keep everyone posted and updated with vagus's progress, especially with the scrambled egg she will get tonight. heres an updated pic of her!
